Simon found love, in love he thinks he found himself
Only has a heart for her and her alone
He walks down crowded streets and doesn't feel alone
Oh, never alone
Walks in space with his feet firmly on the ground

Camp on love sign people I talk about
Johnny knows love song people I talk about
Simon, oh oh oh
Simon, oh oh oh

Camp on love sign people I talk about
Johnny knows love song people I talk about
Simon, oh oh oh
Simon, oh oh oh

Well she's just a simple girl, yeah
Spends her time on crossword games and cigarettes, ah
She lives all alone in a military zone where sam's can't get in
Facts and evidence, she probably give you no clues away
No clues away

Camp on love sign people I talk about
Johnny knows love song people I talk about
Simon, oh oh oh
Simon, oh oh oh

Camp on love sign people I talk about
Johnny knows love song people I talk about
Simon, oh oh oh

Only has a heart for her and her alone
He walks down crowded streets and doesn't feel alone, oh never alone
Walks in space with his feet firmly on the ground

Well I've got this feeling in the back of my head
I feel like making someone's face turn red
Learning bike's and ditto vices
Try to look bored and your going places

We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables

Some music is playing by metal gazers
It's gone through the stage where everyone makes it
Do you think that we're not good
All I really know is I think you should

We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables

Well I've got this feeling in the back of my head
I feel like making someone's face turn red
Learning bikes and ditto vices
Try to look bored and your going places

We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables
We are the vegetables
We are the
We are the
We are the Vegetables

. . .


Green Fields - Grass and earth
Broken bottles - bricks and dirt
Sunshine soothing - clouds are hazy
Dark street corners - feeling lazy

Fast car driving
Sleek and modern
Public Transit
Photos Waiting
Blood and glass
Three points of rain
Carpet Lining
Seats reclining
Clever words on smooth tongue talking
Shove it brother - Just Keep Walking

City Penthouse - the kitchen living
A country home - it's a kitch living
Money can buy almost anything
But anything's nothing - when you're dead

. . .


Yonder she's walking
She comes my way
Her red dress on
Her long black hair

Walking like
Talking like
Wanting like
She comes to me

Oh baby I love you so
I need you now
I want you back
I can't go on

Helpless baby
Evil child
I've known you well
And if you want to stay
That's alright
That's alright

And now she's gone
She's walking away
Her red dress on
Her long black hair

Well I love her so
And now she'll come running
Anytime I say now
Anytime I say

. . .


Stay
Stay Young
Stay Young

Stay Yo
Stay Yong
Stay Young

Keep that biting lip
Know what I mean
Sweat upon the brow
That's what I want

Stay Young, just this once
I ... wanna be good value
I ... wanna see in the dark
I ... wanna win with you

Hard edged thinker
Know what I mean
Fevered opinions
That's what I want

. . .


Well you know just what you do to me
The way you move soft and slippery
Cut the night just like a razor
Rarely talk and that's the danger

It's the one thing
You are my thing

You know your voice is a love song
It's a cat call from the past
There's no ice in your lover's walk
You don't look twice cause you move so fast

It's the one thing
You are my thing

You've got a dozen men behind you
You've got dead flowers on the floor
You're too pretty in the daylight
It keeps them coming back for more

It's the one thing
You are my thing

It's the one thing
You are my thing

It's the one thing
You are my thing

. . .

What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words

To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite

Who do you ask when there's no one
Left to turn to
You ask me and I'll always try to hear
Past money and colours and make believe
Good cheap values for a thrifty clown

To Look at You
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite

What do you fear in the simple
Still of a summer's nite
I understand I sympathize for a day dream
Fairytales and I love you

What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feeling's
But never the words

To this ... real life documentary

Black and White

You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love - yeah
You thought what a pity

Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away

There was a time when I did not care
And there was a time when the facts did stare
There is a dream and it's held by many
Well I'm sure you had to see
It's open arms

Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away

You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love - yeah
You thought what a pity

Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
Then wake up to a brand new day

Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
And waked up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away

Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
And wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams are washed away

Dream on, play with fire
White boy, black girl
Dream on, in the name of love
Black boy, white girl

Dream on, white boy, black girl
Black boy, white girl

Dream on, the name of love - yeah
You thought what a pity
Original Sin

. . .


In the silence, I think of you
I send a message, and I hope it get's through
Think of the distance
Think of the miles
All of the valley's, could take a while

I miss the people
I miss the fun
Your my apparition
She's my only one

And I imagine you standing here
It's subliminal, so inspirational
Man of the world for all the good reasons
Take away the pain and drink the wine

I miss the people
I miss the fun
Your my apparition
She's my only one

In the silence, I think of you
I send a message and I hope it get's through
Think of the distance
Think of the miles
All of the valleys, could take a while

I miss the people
I miss the fun
Your my apparition
She's my only one

I miss the people
You miss the fun
Your my apparition
She's my only one

(It Was Only A Dream)
(Th?¦r??se Dion / Jacques Dion, C?¦line Dion)

Dans un grand jardin enchant?¦
Tout ?¤ coup je me suis retrouv?¦e
Une harpe des violons jouaient
Des anges au ciel me souriaient
Le vent faisait chanter l'?¦t?¦

(In a large enchanted garden
Suddenly I found myself
A harp and violins were playing
Angels in the sky were smiling to me
The wind was making sing the summer)

Je marchais d'un pas si l?¦ger
Sur un tapis aux p?¦tales de roses
Une colombe sur mon ?¦paule
Dans chaque main une hirondelle
Des papillons couleurs pastel

(I was walking with a so light tread
On a roses' petals carpet
A dove on my shoulder
A swallow in each hand
Pastel colors butterflies)

Ce n'?¦tait qu'un r??ve
Ce n'?¦tait qu'un r??ve
Mais si beau qu'il ?¦tait vrai
Comme un jour qui se l??ve
Ce n'?¦tait qu'un r??ve
Un sourire sur mes l??vres
Un sourire que j'ai gard?¦
Au-del?¤ de mon r??ve

(It was only a dream
It was only a dream
But so beautiful that it was true
Like a day which is rising
It was only a dream
A smile on my lips
A smile that I have kept
After my dream is over)

Le soleil et ses rayons d'or
Les fleurs dansaient sur un m??me accord
Des chevaux blancs avec des ailes
Semblaient vouloir toucher le ciel
Vraiment j'?¦tais au pays des f?¦es

(The sun and it's golden rays
Flowers were dancing at the same rhythm
White horses with wings
Were wanting to touch the sky
I was truly in fairyland)

Ce n'?¦tait qu'un r??ve
Ce n'?¦tait qu'un r??ve
Mais si beau qu'il ?¦tait vrai
Comme un jour qui se l??ve
Ce n'?¦tait qu'un r??ve
Un sourire sur mes l??vres
Un sourire que j'ai gard?¦
Au-del?¤ de mon r??ve

(It was only a dream
It was only a dream
But so beautiful that it was true
Like a day which is rising
It was only a dream
A smile on my lips
A smile that I have kept
After my dream is over)

Ce n'?¦tait qu'un r??ve

(It was only a dream)

. . .


I will believe you
If you say it's true
Girl you know I need you more than any
Word spoken
I've seen you before
Turn and walk away
You say you won't come back
It's a game anyway

We are hoping - yes we are praying
This time will be the last time
That we will fight like this

We are always wanting
Things we cannot find
You know that we are always wasting
Time

You know I can forget
We have fought before
I've seen inside your heart
And I know it's breaking

. . .


Hey, here is the story
Forget about the trouble in life
Don't you know, it's not easy
When you gotta walk upon that line

That's why - You need
That's why - This is what you need
I'll give you what you need

Don't you get sad and lonely
You need a change from
What you do all day
Ain't no sense in all your crying
Just pick it up and throw it into shape

Hey you, won't you listen
This is not the end of it all
Don't you see there is a rhythm
I'll take you where you
Really need to be

. . .


Playing in the dirt
We find the seeds of doubt
Don't water them with your tears
Don't think about all the years
You'd rather be without

Eden let's me in
I find the seeds of love
And climb upon the highwire
I kiss and tell all my fears

Falling down the mountain
End up kissing dirt
Look a little closer
Sometimes it wouldn't hurt

Playing in the dirt
We find the seeds of fun
And we scream like alleycats
Tearing down what we attack
To prove that we are one

Cutting through the night
And we find the seeds of lust
And loose our minds on one intent
These passions never seem to end

. . .


On the talk back show
On the radio
At the local bar
In the hot traffic
By the red tail lights

Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
When it's all in your hands

And we take it down
To the end of town
Where they have control
But they're loosing touch
When the lights go out

You are all you need
You are all you need
So don't hesitate
There's no time to waste
You just do it for yourself

. . .


This is the power
Since time began
Every single hour
That we have known
And from each moment
All that is left
Sleep of the innocent
Just one desire

Shine like it does
Into every heart
Shine like it does
And if you're looking
You will find it
You will find it

This is the story
Since time began
There will come a day
When we will know

. . .


Written by: A. Farriss & M. Hutchence

Looking for an answer
You've got to start somewhere
Sooner or later
Well you've got to show something
I wasn't feeling too good
This is all I have
Would you take it from me?
The future's uncertain, but I feel no pain
It's a different world
But the heat's the same
Head to New York City
Do you know my name?
Know my name

The places I'm needed
What more could I ask for?
Oh baby there's something
One day I might get there

Out of the red
And into the blue
You know there's something
Burning deep inside you

And now I'm doing so well
Look at all I have
Would you take it from me?
The future's uncertain, but I feel no pain
It's a different world
But the heat's the same
Head to New York City
Yeah, you know my name
Know my name

It's a different jungle
But the heat's the same
Head to New York City
Yeah, you know my name
Know my name

Looking for an answer
Well you've got to start somewhere
Sooner or later
You've got to show something

Out of the red
Into the blue
Anywhere you go
Burning deep inside you

And now I'm doing so well
Look at all I have
Would you take it from me?
The future's uncertain, but I feel no pain
It's a different world
But the heat's the same
Head to New York City
Yeah you know my name
Know my name

It's a different jungle
But the heat's the same
Head to New York City
Yeah you know my name

(Too Young At Seventeen)
(Eddy Marnay / Diane Juster)

Quoi, d?¦j?¤?... On ?¦tait si bien
Je ne comprends rien
A ton coeur
Quoi, d?¦j?¤?... Plus rien ?¤ se dire
Tu n'as pas pu mentir ?¤ mon coeur
Toi surtout que je voyais
Comme on voit le soleil
Toi partout o?? je passais
Mes heures les plus belles
Trop naive...
... Ce qui m'arrive
... On dirait que je suis...

(What?, already?... we were so well
I don't understand a thing
To your heart
What?, already?... nothing else to say to each other
You cannot have lied to my heart
You especially that I was seeing
Like we see the sun
You everywhere where I was spending
My most beautiful hours
Too naive...
... What happens to me
... We could say I am... )

Trop jeune ?¤ dix-sept ans
Trop tendre aussi
Trop jeune ?¤ dix-sept ans

(Too young at seventeen
Too tender also
Too young at seventeen)

J'ai jou?¦ ?¤ ne plus ??tre enfant
Mais toi tu ne jouais pas
C'est moi qui voyais trop grand
Et je paie aujourd'hui
D'avoir r??v?¦ ma vie

(I played to no longer be a child
But you were not playing
It's me who saw too big
And I pay today
For having dreamt my life)

Trop jeune ?¤ dix-sept ans
Trop tendre aussi
Si vieille ?¤ dix-sept ans
Triste
Si triste... ce soir
Trop jeune

(Too young at seventeen
Too tender also
So old at seventeen
Sad
So sad... tonight
Too young)

Vivre comme avant... t'oublier...
Me passer de toi...
M'endormir... me r?¦veiller
Et ne plus penser ?¤ toi
Ou faire semblant de sourire
Je ne saurais pas

(Living like before... .forgetting you
To do without you... .
Falling asleep... waking up
And no longer think about you
Or doing like I'm smiling
I wouldn't know)

Trop jeune ?¤ dix-sept ans
Trop tendre aussi
Trop jeune ?¤ dix-sept ans
Triste... si triste...
Triste... si triste...
Ce soir

(Too young at seventeen
Too tender also
Too young at seventeen
Sad... so sad...
Sad... so sad...
Tonight)

Live baby live
Now that the day is over
I got a new sensation
In perfect moments
Impossible to refuse

Sleep baby sleep
Now that the night is over
And the sun comes like a god
Into our room
All perfect light and promises

Gotta hold on you
A new sensation
A new sensation
Right now
Gonna take you over
A new sensation
A new sensation

Dream baby dream
Of all that's come and going
And you will find out
In the end
There really is
There really is no difference

Cry baby cry
When you've got to get it out
I'll be your shoulder
You can tell me all
Don't keep it in ya
Well that's the reason why I'm here

Are you ready for a new sensation
A new sensation
Right now
Gonna take you on a new sensation
A new sensation

Hate baby hate
When there's nothing left for you
You're only human
What can you do
It'll soon be over
Don't let your pain take over you

Love baby love
It's written all over your face
There's nothing better we could do
Than live forever
Well that's all we've got to do

Hey now I'm gonna take a new sensation
A new sensation

. . .


Don't ask me
What you know is true
Don't have to tell you
I love your precious heart

I
I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart

We could live
For a thousand years
But if I hurt you
I'd make wine from your tears

I told you
That we could fly
'Cause we all have wings
But some of us don't know why

I
I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never ever tear us apart

. . .


All veils and misty
Streets of blue
Almond looks
That chill divine
Some silken moment
Goes on forever
And we're leaving broken hearts behind

Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify me

I need perfection
Some twisted selection
That tangles me
To keep me alive

In all that exists
None have your beauty
I see your face
I will survive

Eternally wild with the power
To make every moment come alive
All those stars that shine upon you
Will kiss you every night

All veils and misty
Streets of blue
Almond looks
That chill divine
Some silken moment
Goes on forever
And we're leaving
Yeah we're leaving broken hearts behind

You're eternally wild with the power
To make every moment come alive
All those stars that shine upon you
And they'll kiss you every night

. . .


Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked
Sometimes you kick

Come on come on come on come

I look around unsatisfied
At what they're giving me
Then I think to myself
Is there someone else
Who feels the same as me
Do you feel the same baby

When my back is broken
When the mountain moves away
All the dreams and promises
That we give
We give away

Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked
Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked

Look ahead
But don't mix it up
Baby look ahead
To better days and better ways
Make peace with flesh and blood
Make peace with your love
Nothing more I could ask of you
In the end this is the truth

. . .


Suicide blonde, suicide blonde
Suicide blonde, suicide blonde
Suicide blonde was the colour of her hair
Like a cheap distraction
For a new affair
She knew it would finish
Before it began
Something tells me you lost the plan

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

She stripped to the beat
But her clothes stay on
White light everywhere
But you can't see a thing
Such a squeeze
A mad, sad moment
Glory to you, glory to you, take me there

Got some revelation put into your hands
Save you from your misery
Like rain across the land
Don't you see
The colour of deception
Turning your world around again

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

In a room above a busy street
The echoes of a life
The fragments and the accidents
Separated by incidents

Listen to by the walls
We share the same spaces
Repeated in the corridors
Performing the same movements

Storey to storey
Building to building
Street to street
We pass each other on the stairs

Storey to storey
Building to building
Street to street
We pass each other on the stairs

Listen to by the walls
We share the same spaces
Repeated in the corridors
Performing the same movements

The nature of your tragedy
Is chained around your neck
Do you lead or are you lead
Are you sure that you don't care

There are reasons here to give your life
And follow in your way
The passion lives to keep your faith
Though all are different, all are great

Climbing as we fall
We dare to hold on to our fate
And steal away our destiny
To catch ourselves
With quiet grace

Storey to storey
Building to building
Street to street
We pass each other on the stairs

Listen to by the walls
We share the same spaces
Repeated in the corridors
Performing the same movements

Storey to storey
Building to building
Street to street
We pass each other on the stairs

And I was lost for words
In your arms
Attempting to make sense
Of my aching heart
If I could just be
Everything and everyone to you
This life would just be so easy

Not enough time for all
That I want for you
Not enough time for every kiss
And every touch and all the nights
I wanna be inside you

We will make time stop
For the two of us
Make time stop
And listen for our sighs

Not enough time for all
That I want for you
Not enough time for every kiss
And every touch and all the nights
I wanna be inside you

In our fight against the end
Making love we are immortal
We are the last two left on earth
And I was lost for words
In your arms
Attempting to make sense of
My aching heart
If I could just be everything
And everyone to you

Not enough time for all
That I want for you
Not enough time for every kiss
Not enough time for all my love
Not enough time for every touch

Not enough time for all
That I want for you
Not enough time for every kiss
And every touch and all the nights
I wanna be inside you

. . .


Yes it's me
I am the one
To make you see
Where we belong
I was shaking
Like a leaf
All wrapped up
In my dirty sheets
If I agree to what comes next
I would be faking
With the best of them
It seems a crime
I would commit
Without the difference
Of all the world's gifts

Sweet sweet sweet
Could you taste it

Never never never

Never never never (taste it)

To dream
All the time
Without a scream
In the dead of night
All those faces
Come back to me
I'll be begging
To swim that sea
Yea I made
A picture story
Make you cry
In all your glory
A need to quench
The thirst of many
To justify
And make ready

Sweet sweet sweet
Could you taste it

Never never never (taste it)
Never never never (taste it)
Never never never (taste it)
Never never never (taste it)

This realization
Owes us strength to show
If you're uncertain
You're invited to believe
These are the words I speak
These are the words I speak

A dislocation
From where we once came from
Give sons and daughters
Because we want to go on

These are the words she speaks
These are the words she speaks

Sweet sweet sweet
Could you taste it

Never never never (taste it)
Never never never (taste it)
Never never never (taste it)
Never never never (taste it)

Never never never
Never never never

Nicky's in the corner
With a black coat on
Running from a bad home
With some cat inside

Now where did you find her
Among the neon lights
That haunt the streets outside
Stay with me

Beautiful girl (stay with me)
Beautiful girl (stay with me)
She wants to go home

From doorway to doorway
Street corner to corner
With the neon ghosts in the city
And she says

Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me

She's so scared
So very frightened
Anything could happen
Right here tonight

Beautiful girl (stay with me)
Beautiful girl (stay with me)
She wants to go home

Stay with me (beautiful girl)
Stay with me (beautiful girl)
Stay with me (beautiful girl)
Stay with me (beautiful girl)

Oh, so fine
We were trying
Out of nowhere
Just in time
Let you take me
Deep down the river
Kiss the changes
That shape my life

Always
Left behind
All the tracks that
I could find
Do do do do do
All these scars are mine

I was thinking got the feeling
The gift you gave
Is gonna last forever

All the lies you find
All the truth you see
Rise and fall
But I know what's mine
Here we lie
Looking up to
Empty sky
And the promises we find

I'm not the first one
To ask why
Yeah, yeah

Do do do do do
Do do do do do
All we ever try

I was thinking
Got the feeling
The gift you gave
Is gonna last forever

I was thinking
Got the feeling
The gift you gave
Is gonna last forever

Do do do do do
Do do do do do
All these scars are mine

Do do do do do
Do do do do do
All these scars are mine

I was thinking
Got the feeling
The gift you gave
Is gonna last forever

All the lies you find
All the truth you see
Rise and fall
But I know what's mine

I was thinking
Got the feeling
The gift you gave
Is gonna last forever

All the lies you find
All the truth you see
Rise and fall
But I know what's mine

. . .


I've come to tell you 'bout the story I see
It made of honey but it sting like a bee
Got the message that it come from the floor
And that's the way to get yourself in trouble

You think it's easy 'cause you don't know the feeling
Make it up
Make it up like you do no wrong
Give me fever like a man blind from passion
If you got the time I'll show you how to turn it on

Please
You got that need

She got her ways to get me down on the floor
And take me places that I never seen before
Someone told me I got to take it easy
But I'm a junkie
A junkie when the heat is on

. . .


Welcome to the strangest party baby
It's like were staring at the sun
Everybody's got their invitations
Hoping that your gonna come, yeah

These are the times
These are the crimes
What are we waiting for
What are we hating for

Your part of the solution
Or part of the problem
Your gonna have to dance with one
Your giving up on the future honey
I'll count you out of having some
Yeah, some

These are the times (times)
These are the crimes (crimes)
What are we waiting for
What are we hating for

Here comes the rain
Yeah, here comes the rain yeah

These are the times
These are the crimes
What are we waiting for
What are we hating for

These are the time (times)
These are the crimes (crimes)
What are we waiting for (what are we)
What are we hating for (waiting for)

Wash away the pain
Into the blue sea, yeah

These are the times (times)
These are the crimes (crimes)
What are we waiting for (what are we)
What are we hating for (waiting for)

Wash away the rain
Into the blue sea, yeah

These are the times
These are the times

. . .


Look at all that shines
Baby's down on the world and she knows it
If your spirit's running
Why don't me make it rain like we used to
We run
We hide
We wait and we want
The good life
Aw sure
You're right
This ain't, the good life

Ah, Elegantly wasted
Ah, Elegantly wasted

Look at all the crimes
Baby's down on the world cause she owns it
Making up her life
Nothing more, nothing less makes it Voodoo
We run
We hide
We wait and we want
The good life
Aw sure
You're right
This ain't, the good life

Ah, Elegantly wasted
Ah, Elegantly wasted

We look at all that shines
Baby's down on the world and she knows it
If your spirit's fine
Why don't we make it rain like we used to
We run
We hide
We want
The good life
Aw sure
You're right
This ain't, the good life

Ah, Elegantly wasted
(you could be right, you could be certain, you could be right)
Ah, Elegantly wasted
Ah, Elegantly wasted
(you could be right, you could be certain, you could be right)
Ah, Elegantly wasted (feels like, feels like)
Elegantly wasted - you could be right
Elegantly wasted - you could be certain
Elegantly wasted - you could be right
Feels right, feels right

The sky is blue I'm watching you
The grass is green what does it mean
Clouds are white don't loose that fight
Generations oversight is fucking up my poetry

Let it ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride

Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars
Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars
Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars
Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars

The sky is blue I'm watching you
The grass is green what does it mean
Clouds are white don't loose that fight
Generations oversight is fucking up my overdrive

Let it ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride

Let it ride, ride, ride

. . .


(Backing Vocals by Tania Hancheroff & Joani Bye)

You shot your mouth off like a kid
Who's scared to have a heart
You're losing grip of what really matters
'Cause you don't know where to start
You wake up in the morning
With a starfuck for a friend
The things you do are so in tune
With what you said you hate
What's giving you the will to live
Is it looking for revenge
The only laugh that you've got left
Is from hiding from the pain
What must have happened to your soul
Is skinnin' you alive
The thing that you fear the most is love
and that's buried deep inside
So deep inside
Don't lose your head
'Cause I can't do the time
Don't lose your head
Or can you pay the price

The heart you're building out of rock
Is turning into sand
'Cause you never took the time to think
What it means to be a man
You act like you got the answer
When the question's never asked
I've been to where you're coming from
But the postcards weren't so bad
The knife I carry's been sharpened
On the mouths that won't keep shut
I'll stab at you in the darkness
'Cause I'm trying to shed some light
Your point of view's so meaningless
If you ever had one at all
All you seem to care about
Is who's is gonna take the fall
Who's gonna take the fall for you

Don't lose your head
Now I can't do the time for you
Don't lose your head
Can you pay the price

Don't lose your head
'Cause I can't do the time
Don't lose your head
But can you pay the price

Don't lose your head
If you can't do the time
Don't lose your head
Can you pay the price

Don't lose your head
You can't pay the price
Don't lose your head

I am searching
I am not alone
I am searching
Please, give me some

Have we lost direction
Washed our hands of blood
I'm in need of sensation
Is there more to this love

Saw a mother screaming
She had lost control
Of what she once believed in
And she was not alone

If you could face the pain
And I could do the same
It would be clear tomorrow
But will it start, but will it start again

I am searching
I am not alone
I am searching
Please, give me some

Saw a mother screaming
She had lost control
Of what she once believed in
And she was not alone

Have we lost direction
Washed our hands of blood
I'm in need of sensation
Is there more to this love

If you could face the pain
And I could do the same
It would be clear tomorrow
But will it start, but will it start again

I am searching
I am not alone
I am searching
Please, show me some

I am searching
I am not alone
I am searching
Please, show me some

Love
